Description

The Sarath is Medium Class Quad OmniMech, first developed exclusively for the Regulan Fiefs during early 32nd Century. Built by Ronin Inc of Wallis, the Sarath was the former Free World League state's first OmniMech. The 'Mech was named for assumed guise of the mystic Hindu god Krishna. When it was first produced, it was considered a 'mech of high prestige. Export of the Sarath would be barred and held exclusively for the use for the Regulan miliary.

However, the 'Mech gained bad reputation due to short-lived invasion of the Aitutaki in 3134. Though the 'Mech performed well enabling the Regulans to capture the former Regulan planet. Despite great performance, the 4th Regulan Hussars' defeat and Fief's loosing control of the planet to Marik-Stewart Commonwealth gave the 'mech bad stigma.
